Treatment Overview
AccuSculpt is an advanced laser-assisted lipolysis treatment in Korea, designed to precisely target and remove stubborn fat deposits under the chin while tightening the skin. It is especially popular for double chin reduction, offering a slimmer, more defined jawline and neck profile.
This minimally invasive procedure uses a 1444 nm AccuSculpt laser fiber that melts fat cells and stimulates collagen production simultaneously. By liquefying fat and promoting tissue contraction, AccuSculpt not only reduces excess fat but also improves skin elasticity—making it highly effective for facial contouring without major surgery.
Purpose & Benefits
- Double Chin Fat Reduction: Eliminates submental fat deposits for a sharper profile.
- Jawline Contouring: Creates a slimmer, V-line appearance.
- Skin Tightening: Stimulates collagen to firm and lift sagging skin.
- Minimally Invasive: Small incisions, quick procedure, and natural-looking results.
- Fast Recovery: Less downtime compared to surgical liposuction.
Ideal Candidates
AccuSculpt in Korea is recommended for:
- Adults with visible double chin or submental fat.
- Patients seeking jawline definition without invasive surgery.

Possible Risks & Complications

Surgical Techniques Used

Results & Longevity
- After 1–2 Weeks: Reduction in chin fullness and improved definition.
- After 1–3 Months: Noticeable tightening and contouring as collagen regenerates.
